RMLD Announces Changes to Residential and Commercial Solar Rebates

RMLD's rebate for residential and commercial solar will be changing beginning on March 1, 2024. The rebate amount will change from $1,200 per kilowatt to $600 per kilowatt.

RMLD introduced its $1,200 per kilowatt solar rebate in July 2021 following the conclusion of DOER's Municipal Light Plant Solar Rebate Program funding. Initially, both DOER and RMLD contributed $600 per kilowatt. Seeking to sustain solar momentum post-DOER funding and in hopes that the program would be renewed, RMLD temporarily doubled its contribution. Now, with enhanced state and federal incentives due to the Inflation Reduction Act, RMLD is returning to its original $600 per kilowatt rebate. The funds will be redirected to support other programs.
